>We also don't kill eagles - but we do execute people on death row - is that another case of situational ethics?< Those people have committed a crime. They murdered another human being. Unborn babies on the other hand have committed no crime except trying to be born. My daughter just gave...

>OK, the problem with destroying an eagle egg is that we're trying to breed more eagles - as an animal whose opinions we do not consult in any way - not that we consider an eagle egg to be equal to a full grown eagle. So - this is perfectly consistient with considering both an embreo and an...

>Interesting - but I disagree. I think we've both communicated our points of view though, so I'll leave it there.< Okay I understand and you have a right to believe what you want to. I haven't run across anyone who has been able to defend the eagle egg thing either :(

>I am against the death penalty AS IT IS TODAY, but I have to shake my head in wonderment at some other people against the death penalty that will ask me (in mass email) to stop "State assisted suicide" when someone who asks to die is up for execution. Amazing isn't it? The same people are...

>again, as i said in the very beginning-- BORDER PROBLEM. but of course, nothing will be done.<< We agree on something reb!!! This must be a first :) I haven't read anything about whether or not these people were citizens or non-citizens but it seems that the drugs were coming from across...
